Description rhev-integ 2017-05-07 11:10:43 UTC

+++ This bug is a downstream clone. The original bug is: +++
+++   bug 1438298 +++
======================================================================

Description of problem:

In the Administration Portal, in Clusters -> Edit, we have "Switch Type(Experimental!)", which allows [Legacy|OVS].

The UI doesn't make it clear what is experimental:
- Is it OVS?
- Is is Legacy?
- Is it switching from one to another?

We know it's OVS, but it's not particularly clear to the customers who are not too familiar with RHV.

OVS is indeed experimental, and in 4.0.7 it fails to add fresh host due to the known "non existent ovirtmgmt bridge" problem. Even if it works much better in 4.1, the UI should be clear that it is OVS that is experimental, not Legacy and not switching from one to another.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ovirt-engine-4.0.7.4-0.1.el7ev.noarch

And still the same on "latest" upstream:
4.1.1.6-1.el7

Actual results:
"Switch Type(Experimental!)" : [OVS|Legacy]

Expected results:
"Switch Type" : [OVS (Experimental)|Legacy]

Comment 3 rhev-integ 2017-05-07 11:10:56 UTC

Martin, can we change the label of OVS to "OVS (experimental)"?

That would be more readable.

Please also change legacy to 'Linux Bridge' as well.
